Shrimp Paesano

• portionen: 2

Zutaten

1 pound shrimp, peeled, deveined, tails on

1 pint of half-and-half

1 1/2 cups all purpose flour

3 cups Panko breadcrumbs

2 egg + water egg wash

Olive oil

Butter Sauce (do save this for your seared salmon and other favorite seafood recipes)

I would recommend doubling the sauce because it was pretty much the greatest thing I have ever tasted.)

1 egg yolk

Juice of one large lemon

One stick butter

One to two cloves of garlic, minced

Chopped fresh chives (can sub green onions)

Over a bain marie (simmering hot water in a sauce pan), whisk the lemon juice and egg yolk with half of the stick of butter until it melts into a sauce. Then add the remaining half a stick of butter (in cubes). Doing it in two parts makes things more manageable.

Serve a ladle of hot sauce on a plate topped with five sautéed shrimp and sprinkled with chives. You may also serve this with hot pasta of your choice!

Anweisungen

Standard breading procedure, and I recommend chilling for 10 to 20 minutes to help the Panko breadcrumbs adhere.

Sauté shrimp five shrimp at a time in hot olive oil until golden brown. Drain and serve with the butter sauce.
